Merrimack, New Hampshire, USA — July 1, 2005 — ShutterBug 1.2, from XtraLean Software, offers

more improvements and a more streamlined user interface giving users more flexibility and control over

their online photos and web pages. Available immediately from xtralean.com, ShutterBug brings many

new features such as page centering, color and transparency options for watermarks, mouse hover tool

tips for captions, plus much more for only $34.

Some of the new features for this version include: horizontal and vertical page centering with one click

of a button, new diagonal repeating watermark for photos, color and transparency controls for

watermarks, alphabetical sorting of photos upon import, floating tool tips for captions when mouse

hovers over image, and alt tags for images.  Additionally, XtraLean’s own proprietary browser lets users

preview their sites exactly the way they will display in all modern browsers on multiple platforms without

any extra hassle to the user. Improved HTML output removes the frustration associated with rendering

inconsistencies between different browsers, allowing users to focus on their content inside a smooth

workflow environment.

ShutterBug’s improved interface adds an optional "Hide/Show Tools" feature to provide more work space

in the layout window, plus saving the same window size between launches and more visual queues

added to the interface, make ShutterBug even easier to use and understand than ever before. Other

improvements include better handling of HTML special characters, better rendering of bullet points in

HTML output, masthead will link if using a graphic and no text, improvements on error detection and

correction on exporting of websites, plus minor bug fixes.
